I successfully detected hydrogen for first time using SDR, hydrogen HNA, pre-amp, DC block, and SDR# (using version of SDR# software provided in SARA Scope in a Box software package).…
Ptarmigan Triffid Military Phased Array Sept 2023
I have been given this incredible aerial/antenna this month – it a military phased array tuned to roughly the correct wavelength for hydrogen (1420MHz) with (I am told) a resolution…
